Very sad to see this news. The SMC has inspired me for most of my career, and I was lucky to intersect with them through internships at MSR FATE. I always daydreamed of spending time there someday. Social media (and the human connections it facilitates) still matters, maybe more than ever.

It's the end of an era. The Social Media Collective is shutting down. Thanks to everyone who was a part of this crazy endeavor, but especially @nancybaym.bsky.social, Tarleton Gillespie, and @marylgray.bsky.social. I adore you all! socialmediacollective.org/2026/09/23/s...
